The fact that AOL sticks ads at the bottom of email (not the email viewing window, inside the email itself) is often overlooked. It outraged members when it began about 18 months ago, but there’s so much to say when AOL is the topic, ads in email tend to slip back to about page three of the list.

Still, every once in a while a reminder of how awful this practice is pops into my inbox. Like yesterday:

For those of you who haven’t heard, [name deleted] (she works in the office during the 4:30 session) lost both of her parents January 2. Her children are in the 4:30 session in First, Second, Fourth, and Sixth grades. Please pray for [name], her husband, and their children that God will give them all the graces and blessings they need to make it through this heart wrenching time. I truly cannot begin to imagine what they are going through.
